Are you kidding dude? Deathcore and slam are the 2 most tough guy metal niches. Any time you go to a deathcore gig you are bound to find bros, which you wouldn't find at a heavy metal, black metal, death metal gig etc.

true deathcore doesnt exist anymore imo. Of course are in this decade some good deathcore bands, but the sound of the past is rare. Since the 2010s, there are more and more boring Downtempo / Chugcore bands that destroy the reputation. true deathcore had a lot in common with Death Metal, especially with Melodic Death and Brutal Death. TRUE DEATHCORE >>> awful fake deathcore (Downtempo)

They aren't wannabe kvlt kids. They're true non-kvlt kids. And I wouldn't say it's a cheap imitation of Death Metal. It's Deathcore, not Death Metal. Just look at the name of the tag. You got some learning to do, child.

You don't know shit, deathcore doesn't even have a similar ethos to death metal and doesn't try to be death metal in any way. It's so far from trying to be 'kvlt' that I don't even know where to start with your post.

Deathcore = cheap imitation of Death Metal made by wannabe kvlt kids who think they are cool and heavy as fuck when they ''play'' poorly the guitar with retarded and overused breakdowns that are filled with mediocrity and plastical/artificial production sound. That's the definition of Deathcore in my dictionary

thank you to all the deathcore bands who realize what they play and don't claim to play "hardcore" just because they think the name deathcore is "for gay emos" even if flatbrim jockbros who play pseudo-hardcore tend to be emotionally unstable white trash who will end up in prison. I salute you, deathcore bands who know they play deathcore and aren't ashamed of it, no matter how I feel about your genre <3

v I've still never figured out why Deathcore being False Metal is relevant. As long as it's real Deathcore, that's really the crucial part. You don't hear people trashing Metal for being False Deathcore even though it's an equally valid argument. So I don't see how it could possibly apply in the reverse scenario.

Those fans of deathcore don't know the difference between deathcore and metalcore when tagging. It's like tagging death metal bands with black metal and vise versa, in fact people DO that too. I won't argue that some Deathcore bands borrows elements from brutal death metal, but it mostly depends on the band, sometimes they'll borrow from death metal and metalcore. Then again people mistag death metal bands as brutal death metal.

@xVictimOfADownx I respect your willing to discuss and I know the differences of death metal and deathcore (I have seen many YouTube videos) but I can do with lyrics not much. It excites me only that every deathcore band is tagged as metalcore.

I mean for example, take bands with the most identifiable tropes for deathcore Suicide Silence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=312Sb-2PovA which focuses on making the vocals very clear, and honing in a very specific message to live your life. While something like Cannibal Corpse https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNhN6lT-y5U it's harder to understand what is being said, and when you do read the lyrics it's about fantasizing about killing somebody (when this is something you would probably ever do hopefully.) I'm being a bit simplistic but, that's the general gist of it to me.

They fundamentally have different foundations and ethos, I mean you mention Suicide Silence and there are straight up jumpdafuqup nu-metal riffs in their music that is everything a death metal fan would be against. You are exclusively focusing on the sonic extremity, when there is more to it then that. Deathcore borrows from hardcore in it's tangible lyrical concepts for one (self-ownership, politics leaning towards liberalism and or libertarian-ism etc.) While death metal is usually more ambiguous in themes surrounded in mysticism or abstracts (or to purposefully go into morally condemn-able topics.)

@xVictimOfADownx I'm sure you know what I mean. Just because Deathcore and Metalcore use both chugs that means not that they belong to the same subgenre. Metalcore is more melodic, modern and emotional than deathcore. Deathcore is more crushing than metalcore. Deathcore is totally Brutal Death Metal. Brutal Death Metal is extremer when it comes to guttural vocals. Deathcore used more Shouting, screams and brakes. The quality is better and more enjoyable at Deathcore. But why so many 14 year old emo girls hyping Infant Annihilator but hear no Alterbeast? Or why love those damn smelly true metallers Deicide but hate Suicide Silence? both bands belong to the subgenre of Death Metal. only senseless scenes shit???

Deathcore has more in common with metalcore than it does brutal death metal.....in the early days it was close to half and half. Most bands in the genre don't even cite that genre is a primary influence, let alone it's fans usually know very little about brutal death metal so i'm not sure what you're talking about.

i dont unterstand why every deathcore band will be tag as metalcore. deathcore is like brutal death metal just more chugs and breaks. Its funny to see emokids who write whitechapel und suice silence first albums was thousand times better than their new albums because it was monotonous mainsteam shit and unbrutal, but why emokids dont want listen to brutal death metal???

v BTM released a pre-production demo back in November, but haven't said much since. We Speak Texan released a couple instrumental demos in December and just about a month ago said they were looking for a vocalist so they could record some new stuff.

Burning The Masses and We Speak Texan have released new music? Those bands have been quiet for quite some time....I don't know about this 'Myspace' revival as most of the newer straight deathcore bands the last couple years have very little in common with the *scene* kind of deathcore bands.

v I didn't say they were a Myspace band. just Myspace era. BMTH and Suicide Silence released their first demos in 04 so I think it's fair to consider The Red Chord in line with those times. Despised Icon and The Acacia Strain released their first albums in 02 and I'd still consider them a part of that wave. 02-05 was kind of one big continuous movement.
